Brésil - Maghreb : Globalité nécessaire et enjeux économiques stratégiques
Authors

October 1, 2011

Les relations qu’entretient le Brésil avec les pays du Maghreb peuvent paraître paradoxales. D’un côté, l’Algérie, le Maroc et la Tunisie ne semblent pas représenter des priorités de la diplomatie brésilienne. D’un autre côté cependant, il n’est pas possible de conclure que ces pays ont été ignorés par le gouvernement du président Lula. Les trois font notamment partie des pays arabes acheteurs de matières premières à fort potentiel. Surtout, ils importent comme pourvoyeurs d’hydrocarbures historiquement non négligeables dans le cas de l’Algérie et comme fournisseurs de produits phosphatiques pour le Maroc et la Tunisie. Les relations avec les États maghrébins mettent en relief une caractéristique de la diplomatie brésilienne, celle de l’équidistance qui permet à leur pays de jouir d’une image extrarégionale généralement très favorable, ce qui facilite le rapprochement avec le Maghreb.

    When countries face external financial shocks, they must rely on financial buffers to counter such shocks. The global financial safety net is the set of institutions and arrangements that provide lines of defense for economies against such shocks. From any individual country standpoint, there are three lines of defense in their external financial safety nets: international reserves, pooled resources (swap lines and plurilateral financing arrangements), and the International Monetar ...
